Electrical Warning Light

[Traditimeour]

I've got a warning light that only comes on when i use the brakes. It's the electrical warning light i think( it turned up when the alternator died, and when a tail light was out).

I've checked and replaced the bulbs, brake lights still work.

Any Idea's?

Here is a pic of it.

I'd be guessing you have another tail light bulb blown.. from memory each side has 2 brake bulbs so if one is still working, on a quick check you won't really notice any difference...

My old r30 had 4 23 watt brake light bulbs.

When one bulb blew I replaced them all with new 18 watt bulbs and a warning light in the dash came on.

I got 4 new 23 watt bulbs from nissan and the warning light went out.

dude i have had this problem i haven't read what everyone else has said but the light globe in your brake light is having a dodgy connection, obviously the connector on the globe itself has got a bit of rust or somehting, get someone to check which light it is take the globe out and scratch the rust off the entire experience takes all of 5 mins

pull the globe out of the dash

thanks toffy

problem fixed. had a real close look at all the bulbs. one of the filaments was looking dodgey so replaced it. all good.

now if that same one blows again i'll be back.

lol i love cefiro owners how we are so worried about little quivels in our cars we seem to be quick to forget that the cars are getting towards 20 years old, we should be thankful they run!

...could you imagine lowrider communities?
